Five Fantastic And Relaxing Dublin Salons To Get A Facial That Actually Works

Alana Laverty

Taking care of your skin is so important.

It is the barrier between you and the world, on show for all to see. It performs so many important tasks every single day that we don’t even notice.

And an older, wiser you will be seriously grateful for the work you put into it now, rather than leaving it too late.

Some say finding a good facial is like finding a soulmate – you have to shop around before settling on ‘The One’.

And just like any bad relationship we can be left burned, disappointed, overwhelmed and a bit dried out.

But not these facials… oh no, these facials are tried and tested to leave you absolutely flawless, looking your very best and dare even I say, #OnFleek.

1. The Clear Skin Clinic – Sandyford

This infamous salon is a favourite amongst Dublin’s glammest guys and gals.

And you can really see it in their skin.

Clear Skin advise popping in for a consultation first to suss out what will work best for you and your specific skin type and issues.

They offer everything from oxygen facials (€110) to Permanent Pimple Removal (€160 for one or €75 each for six treaments) which revolutionary for the acne-prone.

2. The Wicklow Street Clinic – Wicklow Street

Their Vitamin C Heat Facial (€100) could very well change your life. And your skin’s appearance.

It feels hot on the skin, but in a really pleasant and refreshing way rather than those uncomfortable and burning sensations that are often the result of harsh ingredients.

The Wicklow Street Clinic use the Eminence skin care range which is all natural and gives your skin the tender, loving care that it needs.

Feeling your face and neck going from super hot to cool and cold is so revitalising.

The results? Softer, glowing, tightened, smoother skin.

Yes, please.

3. The Buff Day Spa – South King Street

Prices for facials at The Buff Day Spa range from €55 to €109 and what you’re paying for is total, uninterrupted bliss.

You are in really capable hands with these guys, who have previously won a prestigious Irish Spa Award for Best Day Spa and Beauty Salon.

They offer the coveted MediBac facial (€99) for adult acne, the La Stone facial (€109) using hot and cold stones.

In reality you’ll be smack bang in the middle of Dublin city centre, but inside Buff Day Spa you’ll feel a million miles away.

4. Blink & Wink – Dawson Street

On the cheaper side of the Dublin facial spectrum we have the much-loved lash bar, Blink & Wink.

But what most people don’t know is that they do unreal facials for a fraction of the price you’d pay elsewhere.

Their express Decléor facial costs just €35 and consists of 35 rejuvenating minutes of massaging and cleasing using essential oils and their hyfrogel mash leaving your skin airbrushed and luminous.

They also offer extensive mask treatments – all around the thirty minute mark for your busy lifestyle.

5. OSLO Beauty – Mespil Road

OSLO boast one of the widest treatment lists in all of Dublin with over 15 different variations treating nearly every issue and problem you could be facing with your, well, face.

Their most expensive facial is priced at €145, and you can get package bundles for €600 but in January they’re running a promotion – €85 for an 85-minute long CARITA facial in glam, aesthetically pleasing and relaxing surroundings.
